Oscar Klefbom News

Klefbom (undisclosed) will play on Wednesday.

Klefbom was forced to leave Monday’s game vs. the Rangers but will play Wednesday vs. the Devils. Klefbom recently moved back to the Oilers top power-play, making him a great daily fantasy option against a struggling Devils squad.

Klefbom (hand) will return to the Oilers lineup on Tuesday.

Klefbom has not played since December 11th but will play Tuesday vs. the Blackhawks. Klefbom will not be back on the top power-play unit right away and returns with three goals and 12 assists (15 points) in 31 games this season.

Klefbom (hand) will not play Saturday afternoon in Philadelphia.

Klefbom was listed as a game-time decision coming into Saturday’s game but will miss his 20th consecutive game. Klefbom is on the trip with the Oilers, so it’s possible he returns to the lineup on Sunday.

Klefbom (hand) will be a game-time decision on Saturday afternoon.

Klefbom was a full-participant in Friday’s practice and travelled with the team to Philadelphia for Saturday’s game. The early start means the Oilers will not have a morning skate so Klefbom’s status may not be revealed until warmups or right before puck-drop. All signs seem to point towards the 25-year-old playing his first game since December 11th.

Klefbom is expected to miss multiple weeks with a hand injury.

Klefbom was forced to leave Tuesday’s game in Colorado and head coach Ken Hitchcock said that Klefbom will return to Edmonton to be evaluated but that he will likely be “out weeks, not days.” Klefbom’s injury should lead to Chris Wideman getting regular playing time and Darnell Nurse to take on a much larger role.

Klefbom (shoulder) will be back in the Oilers lineup on Wednesday.

Klefbom missed the last two games after undergoing a “minor procedure” on his shoulder but he will play tonight vs.the Sharks. However, Klefbom is expected to undergo another procedure soon to “clean up” his shoulder and he will be shutout for the rest of the season at that point.

Klefbom will undergo a “minor procedure” and will miss at least the next two games.

Klefbom will miss at least two games but they will determine if he needs more time off after the procedure. It has been a tough season for Klefbom, who has just 19 point (4G / 15A) in 63 games, which is a far cry from his 12 goals and 38 points last year.

The Oilers have placed Oscar Klefbom (undisclosed) on IR.

Klefbom has apparently been playing a little banged up and with Andrej Sekera’s return on the horizon, Klefbom will get a chance to take some time off. His move to IR means he will miss at least the next two games as the Oilers head into the Christmas break.

Klefbom (illness) is listed as “probable” for Sunday’s game in Boston.

Klefbom missed Friday’s game in Buffalo because of the flu, but it looks like he will return to the lineup tonight in Bosotn. Klefbom has had a really disappointing first quarter of the season, posting just six points (2G / 4A) and a minus-14 rating in 22 games—however his 55.2 CorsiFor% and 3.0 shooting percentage on 67 shots (3.1 S/PG) suggests there are better days ahead.

The Oilers have recalled Oscar Klefbom from Oklahoma City (AHL).

Klefbom, 21, has eight points (1G / 7A) in nine games with Oklahoma City this season. He has failed to record a point in two games with the Oilers. With the way the Oilers have been playing as of late, it wouldn’t be surprising to see them make some changes and put Klefbom in the lineup tomorrow.

The Oilers have recalled Oscar Klefbom from Oklahoma City (AHL).

Klefbom, 21, has scored one goal with six assists (7 points) in the first six games with OKC. To make room for the 2011 first-round pick, the Oilers placed Brad Hunt on waivers in order to send him to OKC.

Klefbom will make his NHL debut on Tuesday.

Klefbom, 20, was the 19th overall pick in 2011. He has one goal and eight assists in 45 games with Oklahoma City (AHL) this season. He moves great for a big guy (6'3" - 200 lbs.) and has a lot of upside and a bright NHL future.
